Tantra meets Shibari - Stuttgart - 2 Days

Tantra meets Shibari

2 Days Weekend Retreat in Stuttgart, Germany

With Intimacy, Ropes, Psychology, Dance & Ritual

An embodied journey through polarities and devotional power.

During these powerful 2 full days we will dive into authentic connection.

We explore the places where the world of Tantra weaves itself into the world of Shibari. 

Together we go on a journey to discover these principles of leadership and surrender and how they come to live inside of every one of us.

Tantra is the sacred life force that infuses every aspect of our existence with love, creativity, and aliveness. Often misunderstood, Tantra is a powerful practice that transcends ancient Indian traditions to offer deep spiritual and personal growth. Our workshop aims to demystify Tantra, revealing its sacred elements and integrating them with the empowering dynamics of Shibari. 

Shibari, the Japanese art of rope bondage, serves as a profound medium for exploring conscious power dynamics, trust and presence. Through the mindful practice of Shibari, we cultivate a deeper understanding of submission and domination, fostering a balanced and healthy embodiment of these forces.

Temple Night - On Saturday evening, we enter the sacred field of a Temple Night. This is a more free flow space where we listen what wants to emerge from the field rather than following strict guidance from the facilitators.

We let ourselves be moved by Eros, the sacred life force, and enter a place of the unknown in the void.

Together, they create a living field where:

•⁠ ⁠dominance becomes conscious

•⁠ ⁠surrender becomes devotional

•⁠ ⁠containment becomes safety

•⁠ ⁠arousal becomes presence

•⁠ ⁠connection becomes medicine

This retreat is designed to awaken your capacity to hold and surrender, to lead and open, to penetrate and receive.

Not only in rope, but in your relationships, your intimacy, and your life.

You will be guided through somatic rituals, embodied polarity practices, breathwork, partner work, and rope ceremonies that open deep layers of the nervous system, the heart, and the soul.

You will explore how Tantra can enhance your Shibari practice, allowing for deeper connections and a more profound understanding of power and surrender and add new dimensions of spiritual and emotional depth to your Shibari sessions.

This workshop will provide you with basic practical Shibari techniques that complement your Tantric rituals, enhancing your ability to embody and balance conscious power dynamics.

Whether you are experienced in either practice or completely new, you will gain valuable tools to integrate these arts into your personal journey.

Join us to awaken your playfulness, presence, aliveness and transformation through Tantra and Shibari.
